Software Reviews of Adobe Acrobat Standard 8.0 [OLD VERSION]Customer Review: Acrobat 8.0 Summary: 4 StarsProduct arrived as advertised. We needed to upgrade to 8.0 for a contract we had, otherwise I don't think Adobe's bloated software is worth the money. Alternatives such as Foxit are more cost-effective and run much faster.
Customer Review: Donot buy it Summary: 1 StarsI use window vista and office 2007. The adobe 8 standard can be upgraded to 8.10 in order to create a PDF from office 2007. However I found that it is so unstable I can not use it every time. PDF is super but Adobe is not as good as its product.
Office 2007 has a add in program to create PDFs but this program does not work well especially when I produce figures and save in word 2007. It case super problem when I convert the word file to PDF. So I wish Microsoft can do something for it.
Customer Review: Unbearably SLOW!! Summary: 1 StarsThis is the worst software application that I have ever purchased. It takes an average of three seconds to page up or down and an average of one second per line when scrolling through a document. It is this slow regardless of the size of the document. It is not my computer, because version 7.0 worked perfectly. My computer has a 2.6GHz processor and 1Gbyte of memory. Don't believe their marketing propaganda which claims that they have improved the operating speed over the 7.0 version. Some are blaming the performance problems on their licensing processes that are constantly running in the background. If you don't need the added features in this product stick with the free PDF readers that are available on the Internet such as Foxit.
Customer Review: simple, effective, but not overly powerful Summary: 4 StarsThe product came shipped in original packaging and was easy to install. The product is invasive by nature-integrating itself into most microsoft programs. This is good if you like having constant access to the program, but bad if you want a program to use a minimal amount of computing resources (which is my inclination).
The interface is intuitive and pretty easy to get used to. The program is not especially powerful, but has yet to entertain and gliches.
Not worth it if all you need to do is print to PDF (for that, use a freebie PDF creator). But if you need to assemble PDF packages, work with the bookmarks and add security; this gig is for you. (though not very cheap).
Customer Review: Causes serious conflicts with other software applications Summary: 1 StarsI installed Adobe 8.0 at the request of a client in order to view secure docments on-line. Two serious problems were caused by this: 1) Window 2000 Outlook runing under XP would crash after the Adobe reader was launched. Closing the reader and restarting Outlook would not always fix the problem. Often the computer would require a cold re-boot.
2). More serious, Adobe 8 installation corrupted my Agilent Technologies Genesys 8 and later (Eagleware) RF simulation software tools. This resulted in the Genesys simulator to fail to find the authentication file. Because the correlation between installing Adobe was not apparent considerable amount of time was lost on this project. Adobe also causes problems with OrCAD 15 license server.
I have currently un-installed Adobe 8 had to re-install and patch previously installed Microsoft and enginnering software tools.
